About Grant & Cutler at Foyles
Grant & Cutler was established in 1936 and merged with Foyles in March 2011. Award-winning bookseller
Foyles started in 1903 and has the largest range of books in the UK with more than 200,000 titles. The
merged language departments now carry a very wide range of foreign-language material, together with a
large section on English as a Foreign Language.
We specialise in the major Western European languages as well as Polish and Russian, but pride ourselves on
covering all living languages from Afrikaans to Zulu.
In June 2014, Foyles moved into an exciting, new flagship store at 107 Charing Cross Road, two doors down
from its previous location, and Foreign Languages are on Level 4. Opening hours are:
Monday - Saturday 9.30-21.00
Sunday 11.30-18.00
Public holidays (not Easter Sunday or Christmas Day) 11.00-20.00
Prices
Prices are shown in British pounds and are correct at the time of cataloguing. However, because of exchange
rate fluctuations and publishers’ increases, they are subject to change without notice. Website prices are
updated overnight and provide a more accurate check on current prices.
Tax (VAT) is charged only on non-book material, and only on deliveries within the UK, or to customers in
other EU countries who are not registered for VAT.
